Prompt: A Horrible Disease

My thanks to Sparky for making me toe the line


It sat in the corner of the room, looking so normal that it was easy to dismiss it as anything special. And yet there was something about the box. Something compelling.

It seemed to call to him the moment he entered the room, pulling his attention from elsewhere to refocus upon it.

Look at me.

He shook his head, determined to focus upon the task at hand, and there was always a task at hand, especially now for they had won the war. They were strong. They were powerful. They were forever. He stroked his rust-colored hair. Even in human form, he was tarnishing.

Look at me.

“Did you just say something to me,” he asked as his companion pulled the hat from her head and let her dark hair tumble down.( Collapse )

Title: Pull the Handle
Author: Orockthro
Word Count: 1,000
Tags: Silver, Diamond, Post Assignment 6, Post-Series, Challenge: Element Flash
Summary: "They’ve lost. But that’s what makes gambling fun, Sapphire said it herself. The game thrives on repeat customers and playing the odds with the understanding that losses are anticipated, but that there is always still hope. He pulls the coin from his pocket and looks at it from the dim light of the oppressive concrete box he’s in. He can sense Diamond not far away. He’s drawing her attention; he’ll have to move fast." (Or, a short post Assignment 6 fic for Element Flash)

Link goes to AO3!

Title: Saving Silver
Author: Spikesgirl58
Word count: 525
Prompt: snatching defeat out of the Jaw of victory.

My thanks to Sparky955 for the beta and apologies to anyone who reads this. You'll know why soon enough.


Where are we going? Sapphire hurried to keep up with her partner

I don’t know. I just know we have to hurry.

That was when they saw Silver suspended over a winged statue. It was already starting to return to its molten state and the heat made Sapphire step back and shield her face. The head had tilted back and the hollow mouth-like cavern hissed and popped, threatening to swallow up Silver whole. Silver’s feet, in fact, were so close to the gapping maw that his shoes were sizzling and snapping.

Title: The Bright Side of Time
Author: kaffy_r
Fandom: Sapphire and Steel/Doctor Who
Characters: Silver, Sapphire, Clara Oswald, the Twelfth Doctor
Rating: PG-13
Words: 2,022
Edited by: unedited
Summary: That Clara would investigate the change in the sound of the TARDIS was a foregone conclusion. That she'd find a strange man in a light grey suit kneeling in the hall, one ear pressed hard against the TARDIS' wall, wasn't.

Rating: All ages
Word Count: 1303
Characters/Pairings: Copper (OC), Silver
Warnings None. Pre-canon - 1840s.
Summary: Charles Smith is a teacher, that’s all, but his life doesn't seem to add up... (This was written for a prompt for something else - but I realised it also fitted the current prompt here well, so I wrote it for both.)

I was trying to post this to sapphirensteel (along with a fanvid), but for some reason it sends me into a queue, though I can post the vid separately (seems to be the AO3 links it doesn't like for some weird reason). So, I'll post it here instead!

I took part in Remix Madness last month, and remixed astrogirl2's amazing fic from last Yuletide, Time in a Bottle. It's post Assignment 6 fic, so mine, like that one, is spoilery for the ending of the series:

Trick of the Light (The Lining Is Silver Remix)
Rating: Teen And Up Audiences
Warning: Major Character Death
Characters: Sapphire (Sapphire and Steel), Steel (Sapphire and Steel), Silver (Sapphire and Steel)
Summary: Sapphire and Steel can sit out eternity; but one thing Silver cannot do is wait forever.

(I'm trusting the kind - and active! - mods here to rescue me if this goes into a queue as well...)

Belatedly, but as promised...

Title: Quadrangle
Author lost_spook
Pairing/Characters: Sapphire, Steel, Silver
Rating/Category: PG (for mentions of death and suicide)
Word Count: 5330
Spoilers: None.
Summary: Sometimes a square is made up of two or more triangles; sometimes it’s more than it seems in other ways.
Notes/Warnings: Written for February’s challenge “Times Square” (although it was also sparked off by fan_flashworks ‘Triangle’ prompt). Anyway, it was much too late for either, and also far longer than intended.

With thanks to the ever-grammatical persiflage_1 for the beta.
